Research

I am a dedicated researcher and knowledge mobilization specialist with expertise in adapted physical activity, research partnerships, and integrated knowledge translation (IKT). My work is driven by a commitment to co-production and research partner engagement, ensuring research leads to real-world impact.

I collaborate with diverse research partners to develop evidence-informed evaluation tools and frameworks that enhance participation in adapted sport, physical activity, and health programs. My research integrates partnership evaluation, disability-focused competency development, and implementation science, ensuring that knowledge is both generated and applied effectively.

Core Expertise: 

• Adapted Physical Activity & Disability-Inclusive Programming
• Research Partnerships & Evaluation
• Knowledge Mobilization & Integrated Knowledge Translation (IKT)
• Research Partner Engagement & Strategic Collaboration
• Program & Policy Development in Health & Sport
